Take it for inspection and see if it passes. If it doesn't, find out where it's failing and that should give you some idea on what needs to be addressed.

You have to run an '00 - '01 P75 (LS) ECU or run a jumper harness and a '99 P75 (last time I checked CA wouldn't let you run a jumper harness though) you will need to have the immobilizer removed and replaced with a dummy unit if using an '00 - '01 ECU. You don't need A/C or P/S (although both are easy to keep with this swap)
